In April, 2005 Richard Holbrooke wrote in an op-ed piece in the ''Washington Post'' that Goldberg had warned that the situation in Kosovo was volatile and that Secretary of State Rice had sent Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns to Europe to advise our allies of the instability and the likelihood of increased violence in Kosovo unless steps were taken to speedily resolve Kosovo's final status. On February 1, 2006 Goldberg talked to Radio Free Europe about his work as Chief of Mission and whether the question of Kosovo's status could be resolved within the year. Goldberg said the process was "well under way".
In October, 2007 Bolivian newspaper ''La Razón'' reported that after Morales' remarks about the United Nations, Morales prohibited Goldberg from entering the Presidential Palace after Goldberg remarked that he wouldn't be surprised if Morales also requested the move of Disney World. Morales said that Goldberg had been making fun of Morales and of the Bolivian people and demanded an apology. Goldberg reportedly sent a written apology, indicating that his statement regarding Disney World had been a joke made to relax tension between Bolivia and the United States.
Peace Corps issued a press release reiterating in no uncertain terms that the corps is not involved in any intelligence gathering.
In February 2008 it was also alleged by a visiting American Fulbright scholar that US Embassy Security Officer Vincent Cooper, in a routine safety briefing, asked the student to report the names and locations of "any Venezuelans or Cubans in the field—doctors, field workers, etc." The student alleged this incident took place in November, 2007, four months after the initial complaint by the Peace Corps was lodged with the Embassy. This student's reports were the initial trigger for Cooper's recall to the United States "to be questioned."
On February 12, 2008, CNN reported that Bolivian President Evo Morales had declared Cooper "undesirable". According to CNN, Ambassador Goldberg indicated that the embassy had never "asked anyone to spy."
The United States Peace Corps issued a press release reiterating that no Peace Corps volunteers had participated in intelligence activities and that it remained Peace Corps policy that there was an absolute separation between "any official duties pertaining to U.S. foreign policy, including the reality or the appearance of involvement in intelligence related activities." The Press Release added that "Consistent with the policy of every administration since 1961, Director Ron Tschetter, himself a former Volunteer in India (1966-1968), has been very clear in re-affirming this long standing policy and, once again, stressing that Peace Corps Volunteers work on community service and nothing else."
In an interview with ''Newsweek'' magazine in September 2008, Goldberg said that the incident had been overblown. According to Goldberg, Cooper had incorporated into the security briefing warnings generally provided to "direct American employees" advising them to exercise caution when dealing with potentially exploitative individuals from third countries. While acknowledging that Cooper had erred in this and accordingly been removed from Bolivia, he denied that Cooper's statements had constituted a request.
In an interview with ''Newsweek'' magazine, Goldberg indicated a belief that several factors had come into play in his expulsion, including the influence of Venezuela, and that "[i]t was part of the general policy of the Bolivian government for Morales to attack the United States." Immediately prior to leaving Bolivia, Goldberg had said that Morales' decision would have "serious consequences of several sorts which apparently have not been correctly evaluated". The US State Department issued an official statement saying that Bolivia had committed a grave error and that the allegations against Goldberg were baseless. The statement also indicated that:
President Morales’ action is a grave error that has seriously damaged the bilateral relationship.... We regret that President Morales has chosen this course. It will prejudice the interests of both countries, undermine the ongoing fight against drug-trafficking, and will have serious regional implications.
On September 17, 2008 President Bush announced he was putting Bolivia on the counter-narcotics blacklist because of its refusal to participate in the War on Drugs. State Department spokesman David Johnson said, "Bolivia remains a major narcotics-producing country and its official policies and actions have caused a significant deterioration in its cooperation with the United States." Bolivian President Morales, pointing to the United States' own drug production record, asserted that the move was political.
On October 16, 2008, while signing the Andean Trade Preference Act Extension, President Bush announced that "Bolivia has failed to cooperate with the United States on important efforts to fight drug trafficking. So, sadly, I have proposed to suspend Bolivia's trade preferences until it fulfills its obligations." An October 6, 2008 editorial in the ''New York Times'' had argued that such a move would be "self-defeating", as the larger goal of the administration is to diminish the drug trade by impacting the lives of farmers, suggesting that "the justified anger at the expulsion of Mr. Goldberg" might undermine the administration's reasoning on the matter. On October 18, 2008, ''The Washington Post'' reported that this suspension, which could result in the unemployment of 20,000 to 30,000 Bolivians, has been interpreted by Bolivia as "part of an escalating feud" representing what Juan Ramón Quintana, Bolivia's minister of the presidency, termed "the worst moment for the relations between the United States and the entire world."
